Once i enter the garage I see my car opening up before I am near it
But if I do not approach it in like 15 seconds it will close, then open again on and off as you all know
I have AGT 23
even "professional" reviewers don't understand how the key fob works (taking to you, Kyle). I have to wonder if Lucid employees know how it works.
They might
think they do, but seem unable to explain it to Kyle.
The fob, when in range (
like when you are standing next to your car filming a video about how much you don't know about Lucid), sends a signal to the car:
"Hey, I'm here." and unlocks the car.
Then if you don't get in it locks the car.
Then if you are still in range it unlocks,
but it you don't get in it locks,
but if you stay by the car it unlocks,
but if you don't get in it locks .....
over and over until the fob battery is dead. Watch Kyle's video and see this happening. He's mystified, and apparently, so is Lucid.
The phone app will do this too, so turn it off if you aren't going to get in the car; don't just stand there foolishly, like Kyle. Also Kyle, the driver's seat fully retracts if when you exit the car if you turn this feature on.
If you are going to stand next to your car, and not get in, you need to wrap your fob in foil
or get a Faraday pouch,
and turn the Bluetooth off if you are using the Lucid app on your phone (or close the app running in the background, or turn off Bluetooth).
The fob will try to talk to and unlock then lock your car whenever you are close enough -- even if you are in your house! (ask me how I know).
Keep your fobs far away from the car when not in uses, or just put them in a metal can, or get pouches or just a scrap of Al foil folded over works.
I work in my garage next to my car I keep my fob in a Faraday pouch
People say "tin foil" but don't use TIN (Sn)
use aluminum foil = easier to get. or a metal Altoids can ... or a bit of metal screen = anything (metal) that blocks the radio signal will work.
and have the Lucid phone app off whilst I listen to podcasts with Bluetooth.
The Lucid just sits patiently silent.
fob batteries last well over a year. The batteries in the fob given to your when you took delivery have likely been thru many cycles so don't be surprised if they die on you prematurely. I keep fresh ones in the glovebox but haven't had to use them. Took delivery Sept. 2022. I use both the phone app and the fob = prefer the fob as it fits so nicely in the watch pocket of my jeans = I forget it's there!
